important points at the end of the video - if the edges of the keys are sharp, it will be painfull and not possible. also if the guiding pins of the keys are not regulated properly and thus the keys are a bit sloppy, they will tend to lock up due to the sideways force and it will not work. but your piano technician can correct this! i had this done on my small (budget) yamaha grand some years ago and it made such a difference. before, it was just not possible to execute those octave glissandi. after the treatment it was almost like butter! ;)
I think Zimerman makes the piano sing just by force of will, and he puts his hands on the keys just to make it look like his fingers are involved. I'm on to him.
This effect worked extremely well (and effortlessly) on Beethoven's piano ... however, unless you have the correct instrument - this is not as achievable as it may seem from this video ...
@@paulinocontreras8426 It would be possible to change the contour of the white keys, in a little bit domed shape. After all, the black keys have this form already.
On some pianos that thumb thing likely wouldn't work if it has a real tough action. Other pianists appear to lift their hand a bit more and that may be a more accurate interpretation of the music despite this technique being pretty cool if it works for your tempo and given situation.
The thing is if you play a piano made before 1870 you will see a shallow depth where an octave glissando can be done w/the correct positon to do it however todays deep, stronger, louder keyboards it has to be figured out and practiced . Hormann did it in 1937 and everyone is doing it now ! I don't yet know how . Give me an old Broadwood, Erard or pleyel !
This brings to mind one of the climactic lines in the movie "War Games" : "The only winning move... is not to play." Glissando is unnatural for the hand, not worth it.
It all depends on the piano as we all know. Kissen plays the octaves almost as smoothly as the glissando. Once you get the balance and position of your hand, and float your forearm while you phrase the music, you will achieve your desired goal.

Dude that would rip the skin under the nail so bad I don't even like thinking about it.
I have strong hands but I never ‚met‘ a piano where I couldn’t play octave (or anything between a third and a seventh) glissando.
One of my favorite "song" on piano is Ballade no 1 by Chopin and his interpretation It's so amazing..no words
Yea I love it to!!❤️❤️
Why do you emphesize "song"😂?
So you like "singing" it?

great! I do the Moonlight on my channel. No glissando, but some nice arpeggios in the final movement.
Taking advice/class from Zimerman... I envy him, gotta admit
Me to!
I’m just starting 3rd movement of Waldstein and am wondering if I should just do the simplified glissando on the ending 😂
just do the Schnabel split hand method
I am going to try glissand.Does it meen to be able to listen ma
ny sound at the same time?anyway it said grest Zimerman so that is valuable.
THE THUMB OPEN!
I tried it and get able to watch my blad on the piece that i have never hurt!!

Claro, con esos pianos... hermoso. Llegamos a hacer eso en un piano de conservatorio argentino y mínimo triple fractura de falange
Hermoso video igual!
Wow!!!

Wow
I wanna hear it in sixths :0
If you can easily stretch a 10th or more, then you can do an octave glissando on most pianos. It's really not much more complicated than that.
I can barely reach an octave :(
i could do major 10ths without extra notes unless one note is black and one is white
i can do 11th with 2 extra notes
also im 13
There was a longer version of this somewhere on TH-cam... Does someone know the name or have a link?
Sviatoslav Richter check Zimmerman masterclass
Sergio Baietta I already did - no success :(
Sviatoslav Richter they deleted ....I can’t find to!
I think they had to delete it because Zimerman said some unfriendly things about the place where he taught (Musikhochschule Basel).
Kommentator That's really unfortunate..
Use back of fingers.
The Waldstein brought me here...lol
Welcome!!
WTF thanks!!!
He executed the octave glissando with extended thumb as the second alternative. It must be much hurt than playing with thumb folded (on nail).
I would think of pain in the thumb. But it has to work, he isn't crying.
would this work on a piano with a stiff action?
Why don’t you try it?
no. I've tried and I just hurt myself
Hello can somebody translate please I would love to know what he is saying
Ho YY im not translating all of it but hes saying smth like „do it with this piece of your finger“ and „this way its easier“
